Atletico were not satisfied with a lower amount than his € 40 million release clause.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has not been able to do well so far, so Solskjaer is considering a number of options to replace him. Rangers captain James Tavernier was one of the Red Devils' options this summer, but United's other option is also from Steven Gerrard's team.
